Turkey's diverse geology causes natural disasters that kill and damage towns every year. Population growth in unstable areas without geological variables in value studies endangers people and real estate. This study examines how geological factors affect house values, which are often overlooked in applications. The analytical hierarchy process (AHP) was used to analyze conventional parameters, geological factors, and priorities for three provinces in Turkey with unique geological properties in surface water, groundwater, active faults, and karstic collapse. The AHP analysis was performed in the Ankara-Cankaya district (Ilkbahar quarter), Bolu-Gerede district, and Konya-Karapinar district, test locations with unique geological properties in terms of surface water, groundwater, active faults, and karstic collapse in various regions of Turkey. Statistical software analyzed the test location survey data. The results show that surface water, groundwater, active faults, and karstic collapse all affect real estate value. The findings suggest that house valuation requires multidisciplinary building site investigations with appropriate methods. This reduces the risk of making unreliable decisions and eliminates uncertainties, resulting in reliable results. The geological factors that determine a house's value are crucial to reducing disaster-related deaths and property damage.
